Drawback to Cloud Computing. From Customer prospective.
1. Any Internet down time, whether ISP, Cell phone, Whatever= Cant work
2. Internet Congestion= SLOW performance
3. With Cloud computing you will be using their hardware, WHICH will be shared among others. Wether Virtual, or not, + It cannot be upgraded in a speedy process, Without the normal FEE's
4. YOU WILL NOT HAVE 100% Guarantee of your data being there, and READY SLA=a promise, not a guarantee.. AND even if the SLA is violated= you are still down..
5. Since you are just a customer, YOU are treated as A CUSTOMER, Versus inhouse, OH YAH, you know who to go to, DEMAND answers, and your inhouse guys are up 24/7 till issue is resolved.
6. YOU control your data.. PERIOD. Cloud so far, cannot keep cell phones up.. what happens when i need to keep my data secure.. WE are not even hearing about any security violations (prob wont even).. If ya cant keep my pictures safe, how can i trust you with my documents, that make me MONEY
